I'm having some problems getting my Powerbook 3400 to boot with quik
(version 2.0-1j from YDL 2.2, using kernel 2.2.21-rc3, ext2 on /). I would
like to use quik because It takes about 25 sec before BootX is run.

My /etc/quik.conf looks like this:

root=/dev/hda10
partition=10 # also tried with this disabled
timeout=20
image=/boot/vmlinux-2.2.21-rc3 # also tried /boot/vmlinux
label=Linux
read-only

I have run quik -vf, which gives this output:

Second-stage loader is on /dev/hda10
Config file is on partition 10
Writing first-stage QUIK boot block to /dev/hda10
Making /dev/hda10 bootable (map entry 10)
Writing block table to boot block on /dev/hda10

I have tried diffrent env settings with nvsetenv. But they fail with
diffrent errors on boot:

boot-file "/boot/vmlinux-2.2.21-rc3 root=/dev/hda"
boot-device "ata/ata-disk@0:0"

# error on boot:
